Notable Quote. Friendship.

E. B. White:

You have been my friend. That in itself is a tremendous thing. I wove my webs for you because I liked you. After all, what's a life, anyway? We're born, we live a little while, we die. A spider's life can't help being something of a mess, with all this trapping and eating flies. By helping you, perhaps I was trying to lift up my life a trifle. Heaven knows anyone's life can stand a little of that.

Charlotte, "Charlotte's Web"

Wow, that's beautiful. I think I missed out on that when I read Charlotte's Web in the 2nd grade and had the mind of a pea-brain. Maybe I will reread this book! Thanks for the nice quote, Sonia.
